With their integrated terminations, the
9FGL06
and
9FGL08
devices’ ultra-compact 5x5- and 6x6-millimeter packages can deliver up
to a 90 percent reduction in board area. Factory programmable versions
provide quick turn device optimizations to meet exact customer
requirements. The SoC-friendly devices greatly exceed the phase jitter
requirements of the PCIe Gen3 specification in anticipation of the
upcoming PCIe Gen4 specification, and are also suitable for applications
needing less than 3ps rms 12k-20M phase jitter, such as gigabit Ethernet
and other high-performance applications.

“With our release of the 9FGL family, IDT adds 3.3 V devices to its
portfolio of low-power, high-performance PCIe clock generators
delivering the features that meet our customers’ needs to reduce space
and power,” said Kris Rausch, general manager of IDT’s multi-market
timing division. “And looking to the future, we fully expect these new
devices to meet the requirements of the coming PCIe Gen4 standards.”

The 3.3 V devices are pin-compatible to IDT’s highly successful 1.5 V
9FGU-series and 1.8 V 9FGV-series PCIe clock generators. The timing
family targets power- and space-constrained designs in both consumer and
high-performance applications, providing enterprise-level performance
while lowering the total cost of ownership. Potential applications
include multi-function printers, servers, set-top boxes and solid state
drives. The entire family is compliant with PCIe generations 1, 2 and 3.

The 3.3 V (L-series) family offers industry firsts that include:

Output-by-Output configuration of output impedances, allowing a single
part to be used in mixed impedance environments without external
termination components.

Factory programmable versions that allow user-defined default
configurations including output impedance, control input polarity,
internal pull up or pull down resistors, and wake-on-LAN mode for the
crystal oscillator. This removes the need for practically all external
glue logic.

IDT plans to quickly follow this initial offering with 3.3 V versions of
low-power PCIe buffers and multiplexers that are pin-compatible to the
successful 9DBU/V and 9DMU/V families.

The 9FGL PCIe clock generator family includes devices with 2, 4, 6, or 8
outputs. The clock generators support both the PCIe Common Clock
architecture with or without spread spectrum, and the PCIe Independent
Reference (IR) clock architecture (non-spreading). The devices also
provide a copy of the reference clock, saving a crystal in the design.

The 6-output 9FGL06xx and 8-output 9FGL08xx PCIe clock generators are
available now. The 2-output 9FGL02 and 4-output 9FGL04 clock generators
will be available in Q3, 2015.
